    Summary: 
    "San Francisco-based Ron Nagle (born 1939) -- the "enfant terrible" of the California Clay Revolution -- has made stunning, colorful, entirely unique small sculptures since the 1950s. In his sculptures, Nagle mixes allusions to modernism, middlebrow culture, and the special Pop sensibility of Northern California, making ceramic vessels no bigger than a few inches that draw on everything from Japanese tea ceremonies to Krazy Kat. Made with an overarching sense of playfulness and linguistic humor, a bodily and architectural sensibility, and Nagle's keen attention to color, these finely tuned, pitch-perfect sculptures condense sensory wonder into perfect packages of experience and feeling. Their miniature scale makes these odd, elegant, sensual, and sometimes abject abstract sculptures endlessly surprising models for the imagination. Lushly illustrated, Ron Nagle: Handsome Drifter is the most comprehensive exhibition catalog on the artist to date, with essays by curator Apsara DiQuinzio and Berlin-based art critic and theorist Jan Verwoert. A lively conversation about Nagle's studio practice and unique process with curator Dan Byers, director of Harvard's Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts rounds out this unmissable book"--
